In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses for the

professional fees and special bonus. Had these expenses not been
incurred, income from operations would have been $3,168,000 in 2006
compared to $2,800,000 in 2005. Commenting on the quarter and
fiscal year, Dominick A. Pagano, President and Chief Executive
Officer, said, "We are very pleased with the strong results. This
year is our fourth year of improving sales and operating profit.
For the fourth quarter we posted our highest quarterly operating
income in the past five years. Our Precision Aerospace product line
continues to strengthen. Sales for this product line increased by
$6.7 million or 72%, from $9.3 million in 2005 to $16.0 million in
2006. Total company backlog increased by $10.7 million from $21.7
million at the end of the fiscal 2005 to $32.4 million at February
28, 2007. Our inventories at year-end increased to support the
higher backlog." "We believe that 2007 will be another positive
year and have planned on investing $3.7 million primarily in
machinery and equipment to increase capacity in the Precision
Aerospace product line." About EDAC Technologies Corporation EDAC
